OBD2 Bluetooth scanner recs? - Beej - 12-16-2016

I don't think we have a thread on these things yet. Anyway, I'm just looking for general code reading/resetting functionality. I see them on Amazon from like $10 to a couple hundy, at which point I'd just get the BMW-specific Peake tool. I know a good few of you have used them - are all these things the same?

In my experience yes. I've gone through a couple of the $18 ebay/amazon variety because I keep losing them and they do all of the basic stuff I've needed when paired with the Torque app.

This one has been plugged into the Prius since april. Run Torque to turn off the CEL when I feel like being angry.

mine is like this, don't think it is this brand, but it is 1 of the 1billion rebranded units from the same Chinese manufacturer.

Hasn't had an issue reading a code on anything I have plugged it into.
